Individuals from minority groups, indigenous groups and persons with disabilities are equally encouraged to apply. All applications will be treated with the strictest confidence. UNDP does not tolerate sexual exploitation and abuse, any kind of harassment, including sexual harassment, and discrimination. All selected candidates will, therefore, undergo rigorous reference and background checks.   Background Office/Unit/Project Description The Regional Bureau for Latin America and the Caribbean (RBLAC) of the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) is currently in the process of preparation of the new Regional Human Development Report (RHDR), which will be launched in 2025. The RHDR will examine the concept of resilience from a human development perspective in Latin America and the Caribbean, emphasizing the concept of agency and the imperative for individuals to have the ability to shape their future. Ultimately, the report will argue for the need to focus on using the opportunities that present themselves today, to build a path towards inclusive and sustainable societies that can withstand future shocks. The report will focus on resilience from a human development perspective and will explore emerging risks from three areas: i) rapidly evolving technology, ii) deepening fragmentation of societies, and iii) a rapidly changing climate demand comprehensive resilience strategy. Emerging risks will change over time, but the capacity to understand their interrelated nature is critical to advancing and protecting Human Development. The nature of risks has fundamentally changed. As economies and nations have become more intertwined, risk itself has evolved. Technology can advance development but also exacerbate inequalities and polarization if unregulated.  Societal fragmentation, driven by low trust, misinformation, and organized crime, weakens governance and social cohesion. Climate change amplifies vulnerabilities, impacting health, food security, and livelihoods.  An integrated, interdisciplinary approach is essential to protect human capabilities and ensure sustainable development amidst these interconnected risks.

Terms of Reference Following an outbreak of violence in Rakhine State in Myanmar on 25th August 2017, in excess of 650,000 Rohingya fled across the border into the Cox's Bazar district of Bangladesh. This influx has more than tripled the existing registered Rohingya population of 212,500, making the total population being hosted in Bangladesh over 890,000, with new arrivals still ongoing.  The speed and scale of this influx exhausted the capacity of the two existing refugee camps and overwhelmed both local authorities and existing humanitarian actors present in the area. Arriving refugees settled in a spontaneous and haphazard manner and makeshift shelters mushroomed along roads and on any available land in the Ukhiya and Teknaf areas. The resulting situation and the severe congestion of the area is presenting severe risks and challenges in terms of access to services, protection, public health and physical safety, e.g. flooding, landslides, fire. Many shelters are of poor quality and constructed in a manner inappropriate to withstand natural hazards – in an area which is prone to cyclones and flooding. Improvements are needed to improve access to services, assistance and enhance the protective environment of the site. The strategy implemented by the Government of Bangladesh has been the establishment of one so-called "megasite" which expands the official Kutupalong refugee camp and the Kutupalong and Balukhali makeshift settlements with additional allocated land. This policy makes the Kutupalong extension the world's largest refugee camp in terms of population numbers, but geographically it covers a fraction of the area (approx. 12 km2) of other sizeable camps.  The first three years after the influx much of the focus of humanitarian actors has been implementation of mitigating measures to avert major disasters during the yearly monsoon and cyclone seasons. A medium- to long-term perspective needs to be maintained, given the assumption that the settlements in Ukhiya and Teknaf that are being managed by UNHCR & others together with their partners, will remain in existence for several years to come. In this context, it is extremely important that these settlements be improved in terms of overall settlement planning; location, delivery and management of basic services; living conditions including public space; and disaster risk reduction. At the same time, the needs of the host communities, particularly in areas where they are living in mixed settlements or in close proximity to the camps, must also be addressed.  UNHCR has over the past three years constructed a wide range of buildings and site-infrastructure through direct implementation using contractors, both with in-house design and with consultants. This position is planned to lead a construction team with 5-8 national engineers. The team will ensure a technically professional and efficient implementation of construction projects such as Health facilities, Learning centres, Distribution centres and facilities for security forces. In addition, the team will ensure construction of roads, bridges, canals and soil-retention structures. Essential - Knowledge of SPHERE standards and the ability to use basic survey equipment, digital cameras, and computer equipment.  - Hands-on technical support including experience in assistance delivery in emergencies and relief operations.  - Knowledge of computer graphics, AutoCAD and mapping software as well as the capacity to use mapping tools (GPS), and digital photographic equipment, and related software (map info etc.).  - Knowledge of 3D Visualization software, 3D Max, Maya, Cinema 4D is desirable.  Desirable - Knowledge of UNHCR system and operating modality. Understanding of the humanitarian architecture. - Minimum 2 years of experience in Architectural Design and Construction Supervision.  - Minimum 2 years of experience in developing detailed design specifications.  Key Competencies  (Technical knowledge, skills, managerial competencies or other personal competencies relevant to the performance of the assignment.
